We had tons of fun the last few times we did this, so we're doing it again- ClubAdam! Or otherwise known as, my living room.

We'll have drinking & dancing all night long inside, smoking and/or hanging out on the patio outside, and a cash bar at the...well, the bar...I've got a drink menu of lots of yummy drinks, and I even take credit cards if you want to run a tab!

So come hang out with all your XLB friends, get your drink on, get your dance on, and let's have some fun!

This is cross-posted in other groups and it's a fairly small place, so it will be packed! Because of this I have to limit the # that can attend. But I will be doing many more of these, so if you don't get in, there will be other chances. There is likely to be a waiting list, so please honor your RSVP for this event.

DIRECTIONSRSVPs will close 2 days before the event, which is when address & directions will be sent out to everyone. YOUR MEETUP SETTINGS MUST ALLOW MESSAGES FROM HOSTS ABOUT EVENTS, otherwise you will not receive the address and directions. If you don't receive them, then either they are in your spam folder or there is a problem with your meetup settings that you need to fix.

IMPORTANT POLICY ON FLAKES. PLEASE READ.

I ask that you update your RSVP at least 3 days before the event. This is not too much to ask. I try to control my events so that the right number of people show up. Too few, and it's no fun; too many, and it's too crowded. If you RSVP but fail to show up, then you are a flake. You affect the quality of the event, and you affect other people who attend or who are on the waiting list. Don't be a flake, it's not cool.

If you cancel your RSVP within 48 hours before the event, you're not all that much different. Organizers needs to have an accurate head count, and those on the waiting list need to know if they have plans or not for that night. Other than emergencies, of course, which we all understand do arise.

Flakes will be looked upon quite unfavorably and will be blocked from attending any future events that I host.

This is a free event that will feature many different Polynesian musicians and dancers, an island marketplace with over 100 craft vendors, and an "Aloha Food Court". This event usually draws over 10,000 people and has been featured in many publications and television shows, so expect large crowds.

We will meet up at 1pm, but if you can't meet up with the group at that time, then you are free to attend and explore the event on your own.

We recommend that you bring a beach chair or a blanket. You may also want to bring a cooler with some drinks (be discreet cuz "technically" alcohol is not allowed). Once we meet at 1:00, we will go reserve a group spot together, leave our chairs/blankets there, and go walk through the shops and grab some food. Then we'll return to the chairs to enjoy the performances.

Join us for some fun beach volleyball games. The best way to end your weekend, and get prepared for Monday, back to work! Enjoy the ocean breeze, the scenery, sound of the waves, and the happy people around. We start early afternoon, and play till sunset, or until all cry uncle! and that should leave enough time after the game for those who want to enjoy a bite and a drink nearby.

Those with limited experience are welcome, but expected to try and improve their game. Our experience shows that after a few sessions, they do.

Notes and suggestions:

• If planning to play, please try to RSVP by Saturday EOD. Your friends count on the number of players signed up, so don't be a flake, or I'll tell mom on you.

• Competition is encouraged, while all get to participate and play their position. Our approach is of positive encouragement for improvement, and avoiding negative criticisms or complaints.

• You might consider a beach chair, an umbrella, socks... to make yourself comfortable.

Parking:

Parking up the hill is FREE. Parking near the beach is metered. ARRIVE EARLY in summer. It may take a little time to find a parking spot.

Court:

Our court line are ORANGE or BLUE. I will also hang an ugly men's GREEN tie from the net. There is no guarantee that we can get a court, but we always have. Most often, it will be one of the most southern courts. If not, walk north and CHECK other courts (towards the jetty).

Down Memory Lane

Last summer, we saw some big waves during our games. This was July 7, 2014. It looked like a tsunami. All our courts were flooded. We had our bags against the bushes, and a few times had to pick them up as the waves went past the bushes and into the drive way behind. You can see more pictures in the photo album. surreal!

SoCal Harvest brings American Idol winner Jordin Sparks to Angel Stadium for this year's must see event in OC. Also performing is another American Idol alum, Danny Gokey. The host of the show is pastor Greg Laurie. Did you know this event made LAFC's Top 10 Must See Free Concerts list? This is a joint event with mega-group Los Angeles Free Concerts. We have almost 200 people driving down from LA to see this. It's Ok to come by yourself, you won't be by yourself for long.℠

Sparks' rise to fame kicked off in 2007 when she won the sixth season of American Idol, and she became the youngest winner in the series' history. Her self-titled debut studio album, released later that year, was certified platinum and has sold over two million copies worldwide. Sparks' second studio album, Battlefield (2009), debuted at Number 7 on the Billboard 200 chart. Throughout her career, Sparks has won numerous awards, including an NAACP Image Award, a BET Award, an American Music Award, a People's Choice Award, and two Teen Choice Awards. Her third studio album, Right Here Right Now, was released in August 2015. A an Easter service in 2016, Jordin recommitted her life to Jesus.

Starting Wednesday, June 28, 2017. I will start teaching a cardio dance fitness class called Praise Fitness. It will take place from 7pm to 8pm. This class is Zumba inspired. I will incorporate what I learn from teaching Zumba and include some fun upbeat spiritual songs. This class is open to all levels and ages.

My goal as a teacher to teach a fun upbeat class. One could gain 300 to 700 calories per a class as its a high intensity dance fitness class. If you are not currently working out, no worries because I have experience working with a lot of beginners but I highly recommend that you check with a physician before taking the class.

Please bring comfortable workout clothing and water. It is not required but I would like all of my students to bring some light dumb bells.

HOW TO FIND US:

Park in the back parking of the church. The address is 3600 Elm Avenue at the intersection of Elm and 36th. You would enter through building at left. It would be the only one open. I will arrive 15 minutes to guide new people who might need help. Below is a picture. Also feel free to call me at 562-499-9614

Great that you are looking into lessons, and you are not alone in being fearful of taking lessons. There are many people that have fear of dancing, but I make it so fun and easy to learn that you will have a great time!

The class at Josie's Private Studio every Wednesday night is a beginner level Salsa & Bachata lesson. It starts at 7:30-9:30PM with 1 hour of Salsa and 1 hour of Bachata.

It is a very fun and casual atmosphere in an air-conditioned space with wood floors and mirrors. Everyone makes mistakes and that is why we are there- to learn and improve- no problem.

I try my best to be the best instructor with clear easy-to-follow lessons and we joke around a little and alternate partners if couples want to or else you can stay together for the whole lesson.

Arrive at 7:30PM and we start with free wine or water.

Each week we build on a routine in Salsa & Bachata and start a new routine at the beginning of every month. So you must attend 4 consecutive Wednesdays for $89. Total 2 hours each week for 4 weeks = 8 Hours of instruction.

--------

If you would like to take a private lesson before Wednesday just to prepare and get a head-start, many men do that as well so they impress their girl or guy. I charge $75 for a private hour at my studio here in Long Beach.

You can schedule with me anytime by calling 310-869-8313. Josie Neglia

This is a Dive Bar Adventure visiting the coolest bars down the 4th street. We will start and meet at V Room. This is a very casual event. You don't need to dress up but you can if you want to. Ladies, my advice to you not to wear high heels for this one. We will be doing some walking. The heels will make you cry by the end of this adventure ( personal experience). Flat shoes will work best, and of course, tennis shoes and flip flops, whatever works.

We will have a few drinks at V Room and then walk to The Stache Bar for more drinks and laughs.

941 E 4th St, Long Beach, CA 90802

Then we walk down the street to Red Room.Red Room is an old school neighborhood cocktail bar with a digital jukebox, a pool table &TVs.

• Competition is encouraged, while all get to participate and play their position. Our approach is of positive encouragement for improvement, and avoiding negative criticisms or complaints.

• You might consider a beach chair, an umbrella, socks... to make yourself comfortable.

Parking:

Parking up the hill is FREE. Parking near the beach is metered. ARRIVE EARLY in summer. It may take a little time to find a parking spot.

Court:

Our court line are ORANGE or BLUE. I will also hang an ugly men's GREEN tie from the net. There is no guarantee that we can get a court, but we always have. Most often, it will be one of the most southern courts. If not, walk north and CHECK other courts (towards the jetty).

Down Memory Lane

Last summer, we saw some big waves during our games. This was July 7, 2014. It looked like a tsunami. All our courts were flooded. We had our bags against the bushes, and a few times had to pick them up as the waves went past the bushes and into the drive way behind. You can see more pictures in the photo album. surreal!

Great that you are looking into lessons, and you are not alone in being fearful of taking lessons. There are many people that have fear of dancing, but I make it so fun and easy to learn that you will have a great time!

The class at Josie's Private Studio every Wednesday night is a beginner level Salsa & Bachata lesson. It starts at 7:30-9:30PM with 1 hour of Salsa and 1 hour of Bachata.

It is a very fun and casual atmosphere in an air-conditioned space with wood floors and mirrors. Everyone makes mistakes and that is why we are there- to learn and improve- no problem.

I try my best to be the best instructor with clear easy-to-follow lessons and we joke around a little and alternate partners if couples want to or else you can stay together for the whole lesson.

Arrive at 7:30PM and we start with free wine or water.

Each week we build on a routine in Salsa & Bachata and start a new routine at the beginning of every month. So you must attend 4 consecutive Wednesdays for $89. Total 2 hours each week for 4 weeks = 8 Hours of instruction.

--------

If you would like to take a private lesson before Wednesday just to prepare and get a head-start, many men do that as well so they impress their girl or guy. I charge $75 for a private hour at my studio here in Long Beach.

You can schedule with me anytime by calling 310-869-8313. Josie Neglia

Join us for some fun beach volleyball games. The best way to end your weekend, and get prepared for Monday, back to work! Enjoy the ocean breeze, the scenery, sound of the waves, and the happy people around. We start early afternoon, and play till sunset, or until all cry uncle! and that should leave enough time after the game for those who want to enjoy a bite and a drink nearby.

Those with limited experience are welcome, but expected to try and improve their game. Our experience shows that after a few sessions, they do.

I'm planning a trip down to Rosarito over MLK weekend, since most of us have the day off Monday. We've done this trip a few times and always had an awesome time! We'll carpool from Long Beach and drive down Saturday, late morning. Stay in a large ocean-front suite (2 ppl per room) Sat & Sun nights, and then drive back Monday afternoon. You must submit payment when you RSVP, which covers the cost of the hotel (for both nights) and gas/driving to/from Rosarito. The cost is $185 per person. Payment must be submitted at www.eventbrite.com/e/rosarito-trip-tickets-28906446961- YOU MUST SUBMIT PAYMENT TO CONFIRM YOUR RSVP. Prices are subject to go up at any time, based on fluctuating hotel rates, exchange rates, etc.

The hotel has 2 swimming pools (one is an infinity pool overlooking the ocean), 3 jacuzzis, a spa, a restaurant, a sports bar, free WiFi, free breakfast, and some fabulous views of the coastline. Every room has a fireplace, a sitting area with a couch and chairs, and a balcony with an ocean-front view.

We'll head down to Puerto Nuevo one night for some shopping and a lobster dinner, and we'll head into downtown Rosarito and/or Tiujana one night (depending on what everyone wants to do) for some nightlife.

Don't forget to pay when you RSVP, and don't forget to bring your passport! Looking forward to a great time :)

FAQ

Is Rosarito safe? yes. I have been many times over the years and never had a problem. Those who are afraid of the drug cartel violence simply don't know what they are talking about- the violence is only in certain areas. They do not target American tourists, and the violence does not affect the tourist areas. However, if you try to buy drugs from a guy in a dark, sketchy part of Tiujana one night and then refuse to pay him, then you may encounter some violence.

What does the cost include? The cost is per person, based on double occupancy (2 people per room). It includes cost of the hotel and transportation. It does not include food, drinks, etc.

Who will I room with? If you are coming alone, then we will set you up with a same-sex roommate who is also going on the trip.

When do I have to pay? Your reservation is not confirmed until you pay. Merely RSVPing on this page does not confirm your reservation. The prices may go up, if the hotel increases its rates. You are encouraged to submit your payment as soon as possible. Payment should be submitted at www.eventbrite.com/e/rosarito-trip-tickets-28906446961.
